Gender change is a result of a wild surge, usually only caused by wild mages.
It only affects the graphics, not gameplay, so don't bother. (But I'd choose a new voiceset.)

There is a room in WK where every spell causes a wild surge, the little quasits playing around with magic they can't control are quite funny.

If you don't have a wild mage the only way I know to revert this is going back to this room and cast spells at the victim until you accidentally get a new gender change.

Or try a simple Dispel Magic centered on yourself. This spell works wonder against such """"bugs""""

you might want to "cheat" your gender back to normal with an editor (Shadow Keeper, for exemple)...

It's not a big deal. There are no effects on stats. Your avatar doesn't change. The only difference is that the pickup sleezeball at the front of one of the tavern's comes on to female characters, and that's actually a plus, since his lines are howlingly funny.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.
